HELP! My game's fps drops suddenly.

Yes, my game starts to lag after a while. Please take a look at the sourcecode and help me. It could be that the objects doesn't disapear completely or something like that. You need to play the game for a while for this to happen.

Please help ;(

Hi,

How long is "a while"? I played for a number of minutes .. but did not notice any frame-drops. Also, the total number of Models stays around 27 ( when you're not shooting ) all through the game, so you're definitely not doing anything wrong when it comes to destroying instances. Try to isolate the problem by disabling SpawnModel or Render components. Join #ZGameEditor on irc.esper.net if you need some help, I'm usually there.

I narrowed it down to the green heads. I think they are the problem. Or maybe my computer is odd. Or the fact that I'm using Vista. ;P

And thank you. I will be as active as I can here. This software is great and I think its odd that it haven't got more attention.

I tested the game on an other computer and it works fine. ;D
